CHAPTER 1

"The dreams of future"

The castle of Chittodgarh, the pride of Mewar stood with all its glory decked up as a bride with enchanting flowers marking the beginning of flower festival...Maharani Jaiwanta Bai changed her attire as commoner to have a patrol in streets...to just have a glance on preparations of flower festival...

IN MELA...

The queen was in a trance when she entered the street which was decked with amazing flowers of mewar...recreating the scene of heaven... So serene...so pure...

Maharani: My goodness, I didn't expect the streets to be this serene in the very first day of flower festival... they smell wonderful...

A cool breeze kisses her face taking her scarf away, which later lands on the statue of maharana pratap which stood with all its glory in the middle of streets.

JB: Oh no, I lost my scarf...I should get it before anyone identify me...

So she climbs up the statue, gets her scarf and ties it around her neck. Before getting down, her eye catches a crowd gathering where a bunch of kids where dancing to a song...

JB: I remember this song...I used to dance when I was young... she was landing down lost in her childhood memories and slipped... waiting to fall on a rock or so...but that never came...

A cute young lady may be of 18 years old, held her hand stopping her from falling...

Young Lady: Here let me help you... take my hand...

JB: Thank u

Young lady: Are u alright?

JB: Yes Dr Thanks to u...

Young Lady: It was nothing, I'm just glad I could help...

Rao Mamrakh: Ajabdhe, come now the play is about to begin...he yelled noticing his daughter is not near him.

Ajabdhe: Coming Daata...looking at JB ...Bye...

JB: bye now thank u again dr...

JB (In her thoughts): So this is little Ajabdhe, my friend's daughter...well she sure has grown up...epitome of innocence...hmmm

Ajabdhe (standing in front of a circus play...): Look at them they are wonderful... (Looking at bubbles flying): Bubbles make my dream come true

RM: ha ha ha... My precious Ajabdhe! What might those dreams be?

Ajabdhe: The same one I've always had daata..."to live in a great big castle and have my own horse and lot of friends...smiles innocently all the way blinking her eye lashes.

RM: well some dreams do come true dear

Ajabdhe: Ooh I hope so from the bottom of my heart...

RM: If anyone than that is u ajabdhe whose dreams may come true dr bcz you are brave and honest...

Ajabdhe: I don't know how brave I'll be with u away daata...do u really have to go...

RM: Yes Dr its terribly important...now cheer up I'll bring you lots of presents...

Ajabdhe(looking at bridge nearby):look up there on the bridge...its mother, Ratan, Heer and Balwant...

Ajab waving at them: hello up there

Ratan waves back at her: Hello isn't this wonderful...I'm loving it jija...its damn cheery...

Outside Mamrakh Mansion,

Servant (Maali Kaka): Everything is in order sir (placing bags and stuffs in the cart)... we can leave to the fort whenever u r ready...

RM: I'll be soon back; this trip might take a long time ...I'll come back as soon as I can.

Alright Dr (patts on ajab's head)...be a good calf (he says looking at lakshmi, ajab's pet calf)

Ajab shouts at top of her voice...don't go away from me Daata... I'll miss u terribly!!! I think about you every day Daata... Don't go...Daata!!! ajab shots and wakes up with a start. The sun showered its rays through the window panes to bring her back to reality. She turned around and found her hands clutching the pillow.

A line of disappointment covered her forehead but took its defeat the moment she saw her room...A smile crept her face...thinking that even though her daata don't have any room for her in his heart...has given her a room in his mansion...that means he really cares for her...

She got down and started her morning chores...prayed to her kanhaji for the welfare of state and its people.

After completion, she started to begin her routines...by cleaning the room; she noticed her family pic on the side table and rubbed her fingers gently on them. As the days grew longer, her love for her Daata too grew. He was always rude to her but our princess always respected his feelings.

Soon a salty droplet fell on the picture. She tried to convince herself that she was happy, but reality never stayed quiet for a longer time.

And the reality was that he never loved her. But she couldn't blame him or complain because she knew that he was helpless. He was guilty for not reciprocating her love. She herself accepted his anger and decided not to force him into anything.

She held the photo near her heart and sat on the bed.
